Sarah wanted an antique lamp for the bedroom. While in a second-hand shop, she saw a lamp that she really wanted marked $100. She offered the owner $75 for it. He said "I'll take $95." She answered "$80!" He said, "Lady, you're pushing me a bit, aren't you? I'll take $90, that's it." She said "OK I'll pay $90 if you throw in this old 'Vote-for-Trudeau' button." He said, "Forget it, lady, my shop is closed," and asked her to leave. She said, "OK, I accept your offer of $95." He made no response. If she sues for breach of contract, which of the following is true?
A) There is no contract because his offer to sell for $95 lapsed after a reasonable time.
B) There is a contract because at one time he offered to sell the lamp for $95 and she accepted it.
C) There is no contract because his offers to sell the lamp for $95 and $90 were revoked and he didn't accept her offers.
D) There is a contract because he wanted to sell the lamp for $95 and she was willing to pay that much.
E) There is no contract because his offer to sell the lamp for $95 was rejected by counter-offer, and her offer to buy it for $95 wasn't accepted.
